The listing shows it under OE-reference part numbers 3BD422817 and 4B3407151A. A control arm links the wheel hub or steering knuckle to the vehicle body and keeps wheel alignment stable while the suspension moves, so a worn arm or tired bush can cause knocking, wandering or uneven tyre wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eVehicle compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eListing data names Audi A3, A4, A6, A7, A8 and Q3 between 1997 and 2012, with positions quoted for front left, front right, rear left and rear right. No model-by-model fitment table was supplied, and Audi used several different arm designs across these generations.
